here's another repair that is usually approved by most engineers and that would be to install a new joist on each or attach a new joist to the joists that would be on the right and left side and then put a doubler in here and use some hangers to transfer the load so the load here is going to be transferring to the ends like I said it's going to be used in the doublers here the load from here you're going to have it it transferring to this end and where it's head over here it's actually going to transfer over to the ones to the joists that have been doubled up on the other sides this will give you another idea of what you're doing here again you've just attached a new joist to this side a new joist to this side and again this is just another another way to do it there are plenty of different ways I'm going to try and show you in this video there we go you can see it doubler now you can always put another board here this for something like this you might not need a doubler you know and you might even be able to get away with just toe nailing it into the doubler over here and then in nailing it in here so you'd basically just be taking one of these blocks let's say and then moving it over to here and you'll see another example of that I believe in the next video where I have two doublers in there when I'm in when I move it over there you go that's it for this one here's an example of something you would do if you needed to move it away from the wall and this right here would provide you with two additional doublers to support each individual joist and again this situation would work the same placed any location here where ever you had it so just keep that in mind and again this is just another way to fix this stuff there's our doublers again doublers on each side this just has the doubler here remember the weight is transferring from here to the sides and the same here the weight that would be transferring here is going to be transferring to the sides and to the footings here just giving you a couple of different views of it there and I hope that makes sense there these would just be double hangers single hangers and if you if you had to buy eight joists you're just gonna get a joist hanger that would be 4 2 by 8 2 by 6 joists you're gonna use 2 by 6 hangers in some cases you can actually use 2 by 6 hangers for two by eights also and same with the single joist hangers here's another situation that might not be approved by an engineer but I think it might work in some cases that I would share it with you anyway this would be using a doubler and a doubler on this side with a double block for a head out here and this would be carrying the weight of the single joists except this time we're putting two joists off of the doubler and I don't really see where you would have a problem with this but again these are just examples I am not about to suggest this is something that an engineer would approve on your specific project again we have the doublers over here you're just adding another joist to the joist on each side doubling them up to carry the weight of the supporting head out there or double blocks so here we have a situation where the this joist would be carried by the doubler then we would have two different joists and this might help you if you have something on this side where you might be too close you know if we were to take this this doubler here and move it over to where it's only about a foot off of the way from the footing or the edge of the rim joist something like that let's just say somewhere over here and something like this might work a little better than use not now keep in mind too if you have something from here let's say that's about 16 inches out and it's going to be under a bathtub or a shower and people aren't gonna be walking not gonna be stepping on it then you might not need to do anything with this area over here just as long as you have this particular situation this area supported and I hope that makes sense again this is just something else that you can use another method just kind of throwing it out there go to the website for more videos on walls and engineering I will also have a complete list of the videos in this series along with other videos that I have already made video Greg Van comm structural engineering or go to the greg van comm website any one of them and look for the video box in the upper left hand corner once you get to the video website click on the structural engineering link and you should be good to go you should be where you need to be
